The newspaper “Marca” claimed that Real Madrid’s management is planning to sign one of Barcelona’s stars in the upcoming winter transfer period.
Players from both teams rarely move except in cases that sparked great controversy, perhaps the most prominent of which was the transfer of Portuguese Luis Figo from Barcelona to Merengue in 2000.
According to the source, Real Madrid’s management is taking into consideration Dani Olmo’s situation and the crisis of his registration in Barcelona, and is seriously considering signing him.
Barcelona needs to find an urgent solution to its economic situation before December 31st in order to be able to register Olmo, otherwise it will lose the player for free according to the contract signed between the two parties.
Real Madrid president Florentino Perez is still passionate about major deals even if the club’s strategy has been the opposite in recent years, and therefore Olmo’s situation excites him a lot.
Olmo is everything Real Madrid need right now, as Carlo Ancelotti has not found a creative midfielder to fill the gap since Toni Kroos retired.
On the other hand, the player is still young, and he will fulfill Perez’s desire by relying on Spanish international players.
The 26-year-old’s position on the move to Real Madrid immediately if he leaves Barcelona remains unknown, especially since he will face violent reactions from Blaugrana fans at that time.
Olmo is reportedly the focus of attention of several major European clubs, with Manchester City, Manchester United and Arsenal all said to want to sign him if he leaves Barcelona.
